"Pope St Sylvester's Miracle (detail)" is a fresco created around 1340 by the Italian painter Maso di Bianco. This artwork is a part of a larger cycle of frescoes that adorn the walls of the Chapel of the Holy Belt (Cappella della Sacra Cintola) in the Cathedral of Prato, Italy. Maso di Bianco, a lesser-known yet significant figure of the early Italian Renaissance, was active during the first half of the 14th century and is recognized for his contributions to the development of fresco painting in Tuscany.

The fresco depicts a scene from the legend of Pope St. Sylvester, who is credited with performing a miracle by taming a dragon that had been terrorizing Rome. This narrative was a popular subject in medieval Christian art, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil and the power of faith. In this detail, Maso di Bianco captures the dramatic moment with vivid expressions and dynamic composition, characteristic of the Gothic style transitioning into early Renaissance art.

Maso di Bianco's work is noted for its meticulous attention to detail, vibrant color palette, and the use of chiaroscuro to create depth and volume. The frescoes in the Chapel of the Holy Belt are particularly significant as they reflect the religious and cultural milieu of 14th-century Italy, emphasizing the importance of saints and their miracles in the Christian faith.

The "Pope St Sylvester's Miracle (detail)" stands as a testament to Maso di Bianco's skill and his contribution to the rich tapestry of Italian fresco painting. Despite the limited documentation on his life and works, this fresco remains an important piece for understanding the evolution of religious art during a pivotal period in art history.
